Step 2 - Open the return you wish to empty

Find the return on the admin page.  Under Actions, select Edit.



Step 3 - Export the return

Using the buttons at the bottom of the screen, click Export.

Save the file generated as a .csv (comma delimited) file.



Step 4 - Delete all the marks and the mark codes

Delete the marks and mark codes in the file and then save it, ensuring it is still in the .csv (comma delimited) format.


Step 5 - Upload the file

From the buttons at the bottom of the screen, click Import.



Drag and drop your .csv file into the window then click Save changes.




Step 6 - Save and transfer the empty marks

You can now close the return.
